Event A Platform For 'Blunt Debate'
Mining stakeholders from various sectors – including leaders from society, government, industry and labour – will engage in “blunt debate” about the many challenges currently facing the sec tor when they congregate at the Joburg Indaba 2017, says event organiser Resources4Africa CEO Paula Munsie.
She notes that unpredictable regulatory environments in mining jurisdictions, an increase in stakeholder expectations, unfavourable country risk profiles – which affect attractiveness for investment – and the modernisation of the industry are some of the key issues facing the African mining sector. She stresses that, with a maximum of 500 delegates, the Joburg Indaba will provide an intimate networking environment where stakeholders can engage in “honest, open and frank interaction, and openly air their views and give constructive inputs”.
